¡°In fact, not only others were surprised, but even Li Guoyao was a little confused!
Since Lu Wenlong's troops were transferred to Suining to take care of the batch of supplies rushed out of Xuzhou City, Li Guoyao has not taken care of them anymore. After all, shortly after the Battle of Xuzhou, the Japs surrounded and suppressed Xiong'er Mountain with heavy troops, and Li Guoyao's energy was restrained for a long time. During the counter-encirclement and suppression campaign, he never thought that Lu Wenlong would give him such a big surprise.
In fact, what Li Guoyao didn't know was that Jiangsu has always been one of the most densely populated areas in China. Jiangsu is close to southern Shandong and northern Anhui, and its folk customs are much more fierce than those in southern Jiangsu. Moreover, the economy in northern Jiangsu is relatively developed, so it has the army. many elements of development.
The Suining Japanese puppet army where Lu Wenlong was previously located had few troops and poor combat effectiveness. However, Lu Wenlong's troops had twice the strength of the opponent, and there was still a large amount of supplies for them to use.
With the soldiers, supplies, weapons and equipment, and excellent commanders all in place, it will be difficult for the army not to develop!
In the horrified eyes of everyone, Lu Wenlong continued: "Our unit is currently equipped with 7977 long guns, 3866 pistols, 188 light machine guns, and 120 heavy machine guns. 65 grenades, 36 mortars, and 41 Japanese-made There are 24 mountain artillery pieces, and 18 field artillery pieces and field heavy artillery pieces in total. However, because they are too bulky and the Japanese army in northern Jiangsu is not equipped with larger-caliber artillery units, our department has not installed these large-caliber artillery units!"
"In addition, our department also has a special forces, a cavalry force of 2,500 people, and a transportation team with 120 vehicles. The only regret is that the batch of supplies that the headquarters asked our department to take care of has been consumed for three times. One percent."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Guoyao said with a smile: "If you use it well, you can exchange those materials for an army of ten thousand people. It's worth it!"
It was Wen Debiao, commander of the Southwest Shandong Military Division, who then reported: "Commander, after three months of development, our Southwest Shandong Military Division currently has four infantry brigades of 1,500 people, one each for cavalry, artillery, engineers, guards, and transportation. , each brigade has a thousand men. In addition, there is a supplementary brigade of three thousand men, with a total of 14,680 soldiers!"
"In addition, our department is equipped with 10,689 long and short guns, 230 light and heavy machine guns, 68 artillery pieces of large and small calibers, 12 tanks, 1,200 horses, and 60 cars. In addition, our department also has a large firearms repair shop and a bullet reloading plant factory, and is preparing to build its own arsenal!"
The scale of the southwestern Shandong base area was expected by everyone. After all, so far, among the many troops of the Shandong Guerrilla Corps, only Wen Debiao's army has occupied a large number of towns. Not to mention the central city of Heze, Wen Debiao's troops occupied six counties, and these are rare resources.
The city has the population resources and the most basic industrial foundation needed for the development of the army. Wen Debiao and others occupy most of southwestern Shandong. If it cannot develop, it will be really embarrassing.
Li Guoyao nodded and said, "Yes, you were able to expand from 5,000 to 15,000 people in three months. It shows that you are working hard and working hard!"
Then Li Guoyao pointed to Zhu Hong on the side and said: "Zhu Hong, how is the situation in your department?"
Zhu Hong immediately stood up and said: "Report to the commander, our department has now controlled one-third of the private salt trade on Haizhou Road, and has also secured the top spot on Haizhou Green Forest Road. Currently, our department is in the northeast, Haizhou, There are two villages in the northwest and southwest, forming a siege to Haizhou City."
"How many troops do you have now?"
"So far, our department has a total of 9 escort teams, each with 500 people. They are all elite troops equipped with guns. Their main duty is to fight. There are also 12 private salt transportation teams, each with 800 people, but these 12 troops It is only responsible for transporting illicit salt and is not equipped with weapons and equipment, but it often conducts military training."
Then Zhu Hong continued: "In addition, our department also has a special operations team whose main task is to assassinate and eliminate rape. So far, there are more than 20 copycat gangsters directly or indirectly controlled by our department in Haizhou City and the entire Green Forest Road. Even the Salt Bureau, the Puppet Army and the Puppet Police Force in Haizhou City have our personnel. If our department wants to take Haizhou City, the battle can be resolved in two hours at most!"
As soon as the voice fell, the entire conference room was boiling!
If the development of Lu Wenlong and Wen Debiao are traceable, then there are really no signs of Zhu Hong¡¯s development. Many people have never even heard of Zhu Hong!
You must know that Zhu Hong was just a squadron leader of the special forces before this, and he was unknown. Before leaving the special forces, he commanded only more than 100 troops.
That¡¯s all. The big guys in Haizhou don¡¯t know much about that place. They only know who the commander is.I took someone there to transport a batch of gold back a few months ago, but other than that, I don¡¯t have any information.
It was not until two and a half months ago that the commander suddenly announced that he would establish the Haizhou detachment, gave them the establishment of two brigades, and appointed Zhu Hong as the detachment commander, that this unit came to the forefront.
However, within a short period of time this time, this force developed into an elite force with more than 5,000 combat soldiers. In addition, the opponent also had tens of thousands of non-combatants who could become combat troops at any time.
At the same time, there are also people who are secretly calculating that, not counting the Dabie Mountain base areas and the troops directly under the headquarters, which did not come to attend the meeting, the Shandong Guerrilla Corps has as many as 52,000 people based on the strength shown by the several base areas that have already made reports. .
Thinking about how many people there were in the army at the end of the Battle of Southwest Shandong three months ago, it was just over 20,000, not even 25,000, a full increase of 30,000, which is really shocking.
After listening to the reports from everyone present, Chief of Staff Ma Desheng immediately stood up and said: "Due to the rush of this meeting, the Dabie Mountain Base Area could not send people to attend the meeting in time, but they have also reported their own establishment, let me read it to everyone! "
"After more than a year of development, the Dabie Mountain base area currently has two A-type infantry regiments, each with 3,000 people! In addition, there is a directly administered cavalry regiment, an artillery regiment, an engineering regiment, a fire support regiment, and a logistics support regiment. , a special forces team, with a total strength of more than 12,000 people."
"More importantly, after more than a year of fighting, the Dabie Mountain Base Area has controlled a large area east of Lu'an. In addition to not capturing the county seat, 80% of the villages in the area have been controlled by them. The Japanese and puppet troops are less than one brigade. None of our troops dared to go to the countryside casually."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Tengjiao asked in surprise: "Chief of Staff, that kid Huang Mazi has become a spirit. We haven't seen him for a year and he actually raised an army of more than 10,000 people. It's incredible!"
Ma Desheng smiled and said, "No, you don't know. When this telegram was sent to the headquarters, even the commander was stunned. After repeated confirmation, he realized that the boy was not lying!"
At this time, Li Guoyao said: "Don't think that Huang Dazi is a gangster and doesn't have much culture, so you should look down on him. Let me tell you, some people are born to eat this bowl of rice. Before Huang Dazi took refuge with us, It's not just ordinary people who can run rampant in the Dabie Mountains for more than ten years without being wiped out by officers and soldiers. Are they ordinary bandits?"
"Think about how many people Huang Dazhi brought with him when he joined the army, a total of 2,500 people. This does not include those left in the village. It can be seen that the strength of the previous Huanghuazhai has exceeded the average bandit den."
"When we went north from the Dabie Mountains, we left more than 4,000 wounded people and a large number of weapons, equipment and other supplies in Huanghuazhai, as well as many military officers and cadres. After we left, the wounded gradually recovered and returned to the army. In addition, there was no shortage of Officer cadres and weapons and equipment, and Huang Mazi and Lu Fengying are both experienced people, so it is expected that they can develop!"
Hearing Li Guoyao's explanation, everyone was relieved. You must know that those who stayed in the Dabie Mountains were all veterans of hundreds of battles. After those people returned from injury, they would definitely become an elite force.
And with this elite foundation, it is reasonable for the army to develop!
At this moment, I suddenly heard someone below ask: "Commander, how is the current situation at the headquarters?"
The voice was a bit sudden, but it asked everyone's thoughts. For a moment, everyone's eyes were fixed on Li Guoyao's face! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
